Hummingheads Enhances Security Platform with New Cyber Hygiene Option
Hummingheads Corporation, headquartered in Edogawa, Tokyo, has released an upgrade to its Security Platform (SeP) featuring a new Cyber Hygiene Option equipped with network isolation capabilities. This innovative addition revolutionizes the way organizations manage their IT assets by adopting a zero-trust model. With enhanced functionality, SeP allows companies to execute essential responses to cybersecurity threats seamlessly, including detection, notification, containment, and eradication of malicious threats, as well as log management.
Rising Cyber Threats: Ransomware Targeting SMEs
Recent research conducted by Teikoku Databank, surveying over 26,000 companies across Japan, revealed alarming trends in cyber threats. The report indicated that 32% of businesses have experienced cyberattacks, while 15.6% were uncertain about their exposures. When examining the impact of attacks based on company size, data showed that large enterprises (41.9%) are more frequently targeted compared to small and medium-sized enterprises (30.3% and 28.1% respectively). In 2025, there was a reported 37% increase in ransomware incidents affecting SMEs.
In light of these findings, it is increasingly clear that regardless of organizational size, implementing a zero-trust cybersecurity environment is critical for survival in today’s digital landscape.
Comprehensive Cybersecurity Solutions with SeP
The newly introduced network isolation capability significantly strengthens the zero-trust security aspect of the cloud environments. SeP maintains ongoing monitoring of all endpoints, swiftly detecting unusual activities and threats. When Microsoft Defender, managed under SeP, identifies a virus, the platform simplifies and accelerates the response process through several features:
- - Automatic blocking of threats and viruses.
- - Alert notifications providing detailed information via email.
- - An intuitive dashboard for quick assessment of prevention outcomes.
- - Network isolation executable with just a single click from a machine list.
- - Upcoming remote control functions to eliminate threats from machines.
- - Comprehensive and real-time logging to monitor the entire workflow.
Traditional security solutions focus on minimizing damage after an attack occurs. In contrast, the Security Platform by Hummingheads is a cutting-edge zero-trust solution that continuously monitors all IT resources within an organization, proactively preventing potential cyber threats before they manifest.
Conclusion
With the growing prevalence of cyberattacks, especially against smaller organizations, adopting robust cybersecurity measures is no longer optional—it is a necessity. By integrating the new cyber hygiene features into its Security Platform, Hummingheads is paving the way for a safer digital environment where businesses can operate with confidence.
